MAMARONECK, N.Y. — Bryson DeChambeau won the 2020 United States Open by six strokes as power trumped accuracy at Winged Foot Golf Club. He bettered 21-year-old Matthew Wolff to win the tournament, which was held without fans, on Sunday.
The most repeated, and accepted, prediction before the U.S. Open was that the golf course would overwhelm the field with its time-honored combination of elusive fairways and punishing rough.
That forecast was not wrong. Every golfer but one failed to shoot under par in this year’s championship.
